KB Financial Group announced on October 29 that it will operate on-site support programs for international top-tier business leaders and national delegations during the 'Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) CEO Summit Korea 2025' held in Gyeongju, North Gyeongsang Province.

This year's 'APEC CEO Summit' is being held at the Gyeongju Arts Center from October 28 to 31. Approximately 1,700 global business leaders and economic ministers from around the world are attending to discuss key topics such as artificial intelligence (AI), energy transition, digital transformation, sustainability, and bio-health.

From October 29 to 31, KB Financial Group is operating the 'KB Food Truck Park,' a K-Food experience zone where participants can enjoy Korean cuisine, as well as the 'KB Currency Exchange Bus,' a mobile branch of KB Kookmin Bank, at the APEC CEO Summit venue.

At the 'KB Food Truck Park,' eight food trucks run by the owners of the 'KB Good Food Truck' are participating to provide meals prepared for national delegations and volunteers. KB Financial Group has prepared Korean-style finger foods so that international participants can enjoy them with ease. In addition, together with a volunteer group of international students, menus translated into the languages of participating countries have been created and are provided in QR code format.

KB Kookmin Bank, a major affiliate, is operating the 'KB Currency Exchange Bus' to offer currency exchange services to participants from APEC member countries. The bus-type mobile branch and on-site staff support the exchange of major currencies of member countries and provide up to 80% preferential exchange rates.

A representative from KB Financial Group stated, "As leaders from around the world gather in Korea to discuss in-depth economic and industrial issues, we have implemented this on-site support to provide both financial infrastructure and daily convenience." The representative added, "We will continue to serve as a bridge connecting people, businesses, regions, nations, and society, and strive to ensure that the private sector contributes to strengthening national competitiveness."
